artsy musings of a bibliophile
I am 20-something years old and I love reading books that spark my interest. A bibliophile at heart with a constant desire to understand art, I am a nerdy owner of a curious soul.

Flash
Flash promised to be a romantic suspense mystery novel and it was, to a limit. After the two prologues, I was ready to get hooked but all I got was a story of a lesser level. Why I say this is because apart from being a highly unlikely contract, it was almost predictable. The bad characters were shown to be bad from the start with a thin layer of mystery surrounding them and the good ones were just plain selfless.I did not like the sudden evolving relationship between Jasper and Olivia all in an attempt to showcase a united front to the 'family-owned' firm. The bad thing about the whole situation, it got old pretty fast. The scenes in the self-storage facility were not thrilling enough although, the character of Jasper and memorable quotes by Uncle Rollie showed a deeper layer of personality.
In all, I liked Flash and it was a good effort by Jayne Ann Krentz but it could have been a lot better if it were better shaped up and edited smoothly.
